The transmission of huge amounts of data generated from various sensors is the basis and prerequisite for the analysis and prediction of the marine ecosystem. The special geographical conditions of the ocean determine that its data transmission is different from the common terrestrial data transmission. In this study, a marine environmental monitoring network architecture is proposed to collect environmental data from marine ecosystems using a heterogeneous network constructed by a multi-hop network and a satellite network. Considering the characteristics of satellite networks, such as high bandwidth delay product (BDP), long latency and high bit error rate, this work proposes a transmission scheme that improves the transmission performance of Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)-based Internet networks over satellite networks. The improved scheme increases the monitoring data …
